Watch: Golden retriever rescued after being swept out to sea

PORTHCAWL, Wales - A British lifeboat crew saved a golden retriever that had been swept out to sea off the southern coast of Wales.

Footage of the rescue shows the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) rescue crew speeding toward the dog as she was paddling in the Bristol Channel on Feb. 1.

The dog, named Seren, appeared exhausted when the rescue crew reached her. The RNLI noted that the tidal current was pulling Seren farther out to sea.
